We woke to rain.

Our last morning in Melbourne and it was raining, not a great deal but enough to be annoying while we were packing up. We were heading to the Ballarat area which meant driving from one side of Melbourne to the other and then some.

About to crest West Gate Bridge, we used to drive over this regularly when we lived on the west side and worked in Melbourne city.

It was still slightly raining and thankfully cool.

We weren't real sure of where we were headed and later we wanted to pull off for a coffee and sort out the caravan park that suited us. I had seen signs suggesting to "take a 15 minute power nap if tired" good idea but there were no rest areas to pull over. Finally we had to take an exit into a small township to have our coffee and set a route for our next stop.

Arriving in Creswick which is about twenty minutes from Ballarat, great reviews on this park but we were lucky to get a park as there are two large groups  booked in for the weekend but he fitted us in. We are up the back, backed onto and over looking the lake.

We discovered this afternoon that we had run out of water, bit surprising but we had not connected to mains water all the way down, but as the tank was empty, Warren took the opportunity to do some maintenance on it.

While we are coming to terms with daylight saving it is rather nice to eat outside and stay out until 8 pm or so, trouble is the waking up later in the mornings but cant have it both ways.
